PHOTO REQUIREMENTS
PHOTOS CAN BE SENT VIA E-MAIL
IN GIF. PNG. or JPEG (JPG) FORMAT

If you want to share your dog or cat, whatever pet you love
with the world, please feel free to submit a photo.  If I'm going
to be able to publish it to the world wide web however, I need
your permission to use your photo exclusively.  This simply
means that you do not grant another artist on the internet
the use of the photo.    Guidelines are below.

When using any photos, you are always sent a preview for
approval.  Please let me know the name of your dog and his/her
weight
(so I can gauge how big to make him / her.)

Thank you for allowing me to use your dog in my work.
It means a lot  when someone is "so flattered" or
"thrilled".   Without the generosity of so many of
you, it would definitely have taken longer to make
my dream come true of making a living at what I love.

Please read carefully.

Send photos via e-mail in JPG (JPEG) or PNG format.

1)  Straight on angle - not shot from above *
   

2)  Shows the whole dog (or cat) - no paws sunk in
      grass or pillows.  (If I used photos like that, then there
      would be no paws.)

3)  Good lighting and focus-which hopefully shows
      the eyes (except with certain long haired dog breeds).
      No harsh shadows or light.

4)  The dog should be at least
3 inches high
in your photo
      (because  for t-shirts or prints, it will need to be
      enlarged.   If you can send  it so the dog is 6 or
      7 inches high (sharp  focus), that works great for
      preserving detail.

Let me know the name and approximate weight of your
pet too please.

*Note:  If your pet's  butt is showing on top of its head, chances are really good that you have taken the photo from above and should try again.    Also, if the hind legs show quite a ways back from the
front legs, chances are again that it was shot from above the animal.
